Exclusive: The White House is looking to replace Pete Hegseth as defense secretary

[Bradskii]

President Trump, Secretary Pete Hegseth, and our military says those boats were illegal drug traffickers.

Indeed they did. And the evidence they provided is...where exactly?

Worse still, supposing that were true, they still CHOSE to murder them rather than interdict them, according to Rubio.

 

[Hans Blaster]

It appears that you might have. Because the Venezuela dictator claims those are innocent people in those boats. Whereas, President Trump, Secretary Pete Hegseth, and our military says those boats were illegal drug traffickers.

And SECDEF Hegseth and POTUS Trump have made *zero* effort to demonstrate what they claim is true. Given their well documented unreliability, I have no reason to trust them. The claims of other countries don't even come in to it.

Not when they are part of a terrorist group.

Can the government kill you if they declare you to be a terrorist without evidence?

 

[Always in His Presence]

Sure is a good thing that we can trust the press.

Good thing they got rid of him, oh wait, how embarrassing

 

[bèlla]

Sure. Rubio. He's gone way, WAY out of his way to become a Trump sycophant. Frankly, it's kind of impressive how much he's sacrificed his former principles.

If you watch his expressions you’ll notice cracks in the facade. The operation in Iran is a good example. He was forcing himself to be expressionless when Trump spoke and it looked unnatural. While JD was the most relaxed followed by Pete.

There's literally tons of evidence.

 

[wing2000]

There's literally tons of evidence.

....so you say, but have yet to backup.

Then it won't be difficult to produce.

The videos show the illegal drugs on those boats. But, I bet if Obama or Biden had ordered those drug traffickering boats to be destroyed, that liberals would not be so skeptical.

Oh yeah. I remember seeing a close up and someone had stencilled 'Advertencia! Drogas ilegales!' onto one of the sacks.

Don't treat us like idiots, please.

Do you now think it's OK to kill anyone suspected of carrying drugs?

The boat had turned around and was heading back to shore before it was fired upon. Analysts have said it wouldn't have had fuel to reach the US. Experts have also said drug runners have at the most 2 people to increase speed and lower weight.

Vessel struck by US military off Venezuela was heading back to shore, AP sources say

The U.S. military strike on what the Trump administration says was a drug-carrying speedboat from Venezuela came after the vessel had turned around and was headed back to shore.

No prior president has ever used the military to execute civilians on the high seas without making any attempt to interdict and detain them. The fact is, we may never know what was on that boat and who the occupants were. The evidence lies at the bottom of ocean.
